Is Lautaro di Lollo any good?

Where can I get a pair of glasses like Always Ready coach Julio Cesar Baldivieso?

In a couple of hours @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, @santisouri.bsky.social and English Dan will be recording HOP562. Any questions for us?

Have Taty Castellano's two goals in two minutes for West Ham just edged him towards a shock World Cup call-up for an Argentina squad short on depth in the striker position?

@handofpod.bsky.social What is behind the popularity behind Alan and Ian as names in Argentina? And at what point will they outnumber the amount of Alans and Ians in the UK?

In a short while @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, @santisouri.bsky.social, English Dan and Santi B will be recording HOP561. Any questions for us?

@handofpod.bsky.social with Panichelli doing his ACL, who does that leave the door open to being the striking alternative to Julian and Lautaro at the World Cup?

In a few minutes @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, @santisouri.bsky.social, English Dan and Santi B will be recording HOP560. Any questions for us?

How long does Kevin LoMónaco stay with Independiente?

In a short while @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, @santisouri.bsky.social and English Dan will be recording HOP599. Any questions for us?

Also, with the emergence of Valentin Dávila, Tiziano Perrotta, Lautaro Gutiérrez and Joaquín Freitas, do we have an exciting batch of young number 9s on our hands?

Who had a worse defence this week: Independiente or Manuel Adorni?

In a short while @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, English Dan and Chris will be recording HOP558. Any questions for us?

@handofpod.bsky.social who are the sub21 players who have the greatest chance of having a positive impact on the league or earn the largest transfers fee for their current clubs?

@handofpod.bsky.social which young players have impressed you so far this season? I've really liked Baroni at Talleres, Andrada at Vélez and Peralta at Huracán

Question for you. Are the early rounds of the Copa Argentina draw seeded? The big teams don’t seem to get drawn against each other. Thanks, Mark

In an hour or so @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social and English Dan will be recording HOP557. Any questions for us?

HOP556 is up! @samkellyproof.bsky.social, Chris, Santi B, English Dan and special guest Joey D’Urso discuss Marcelo Gallardo leaving River Plate, independiente having an unenjoyable (or too enjoyable?) week in wine country and much more. handofpod.wordpress.com/2026/02/28/e...

@handofpod.bsky.social it looks like the prinera division has gone through an MLSfication. Both leagues need some common sense. When will we get a parallel first division in Argentina? We are now stuck with 2 first divisions in the US. Also dreaming of a continued strong start by Ferro

Right now @samkellyproof.bsky.social, Chris, Santi B, English Dan and special guest Joey D’Urso of The Athletic are recording HOP556. Any questions for us?

HOP555 is up! @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, Chris and English Dan discuss a dull La Plata clásico, River Plate THRASHING lower-division opposition in the Copa Argentina and much more. handofpod.wordpress.com/2026/02/20/e...

Is David Romero capable of 'doing a Retegui' at Tigre this season? (I. e. being a bit of a late blooming striker who scores a load and gets a move to Europe)

In an hour or so @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, Chris and English Dan will be recording HOP555. Any questions for us?

What do you think of AFA's change in stance over patria potestad? Do you think it could come back to bite them?

How long more will Marcelo Gallardo last?

@handofpod.bsky.social Chiqui Tapia was at the Super Bowl for some reason. No it is not a stadium Argentina will play at for the World Cup.

In a couple of hours @samkellyproof.bsky.social and English Dan will be recording HOP554. Any questions for us?

Also are people in Argentina worried about Emi Martinez's erratic form and consistent minor injuries ahead of the World Cup? Or do they think he's just preserving himself? I guess he's probably got so much good will in the bank that it won't change anything

After Ryōga Kida's appearances for Argentinos Juniors, do you think we could see more Asians playing in the Primera?

@handofpod.bsky.social the new LPF logo is quite reminiscent of the Leeds badge debacle, no ? Looks like he’s holding a flare or scarf, neither of which are associated with the Argentine game. Puzzling even by AFA standards.

It looks like I’ll be snowed in this weekend. What matches should I be watching this Saturday?

In an hour or so @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social and Santi B will be recording HOP553. Any questions for us?

My wife just explained to me the format of Argentinian Celebrity MasterChef; why do all competitions there have to be so convoluted? Is this football influencing society or society influencing football?

@handofpod.bsky.social Do you believe Ferro can pull itself out of the depths of Primera National? What was your favorite away or 3rd jersey from the 2025 seasons?

In a few hours @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social, Chris, Santi B and special guest Andrés Gurrieri will be recording HOP551, our last episode of the year. Any questions for us?

Have you seen what Walter Otta has said now?!

Realised I was the muppet who managed to like this, so an early non-topical Q for the next pod - how is Hernán Crespo seen in Argentina? One of my favourite players growing up, decent 🇦🇷 scoring record despite Batistuta crossover & a continental title with DyJ. Saw he’s back at São Paulo & wondered!

In a couple of hours @samkellyproof.bsky.social, @andresbruc.bsky.social and English Dan will be recording HOP549. Any questions for us?
